Rambo Is The Stupidest Thing I've Ever Been Desperate To Play

News

Rambo: The Video Game has had a storied, colourful gestation. On the boil since August 2011, developer Teyon (of Heavy Fire fame) are finally bringing this, ahem, MACHINE OF WAR to PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 in early 2014.

And just as well too because it looks like a total mess. But a good mess, like porridge or that one of the Eaton variety.

I’m not sure if it’s a first person shooter or a third person stealthier, a third person shooter or a first person stealthier, tongue-in-cheek, deadly serious, satirical, earnest or even based on Planet Earth. But to tell you the truth, I’m not convinced Teyon know either and that’s ok, ees all good man – coz this looks like bloody, explody, gory, pulpy, gratuitous nonsense. And I’m always game for a bit of that.

The fact is when adapting a film series as eclectic as RAMBO, striking a coherent tone was always going to be a challenge. But with this much blood spatter (aping Stallone’s most recent outing no doubt) what’s not to love?!
